In MariaDB, LOG() is a built-in function that returns the natural logarithm of its argument to a given base.
It can be called with one or two arguments:
- When called with one argument, returns the natural logarithm of the argument.
- When called with two arguments, returns the logarithm of the second argument to the base specified in the first argument.
When called with a single argument, LOG() is the inverse of EXP(), and it’s the same as using LN().
